*In a show of support for their program, Coach Olson, Zelenock and Beeckman elected not to take their 2011 sports camp salaries, but rather donated those
dollars to support the addition of their second assistant coaching position.


 

Chippewa Champions is designed to provide benefits that bring our champions closer to the programs of their choice.

  • Exclusive logo apparel
  • Exclusive communication, including audio e-mail updates from head coach Erik Olson
  • At least two exclusive events and an invitation to the postseason awards banquet
  • Game program and web site recognition

We invite you to take a look at some of the initiatives the volleyball program has identified as worthy of its championship funds. In becoming a Chippewa Champion, you play a significant part in ensuring these projects are completed. [Championship Fund initiatives]



Chippewa Champions Event –
In developing a single united entity with Chippewa Champions, we wanted to have an event that recognizes ALL of our members no matter which sport they support. This event will likely occur in conjunction with Homecoming – a time of year when many people return to campus. Homecoming is bigger than just a football game and this event is bigger than any single program.

Volleyball Chippewa Champions Events A spirit of togetherness between our programs and their closest friends is what lies at the heart of Chippewa Champions. One in-season and one out-of-season event will be held to celebrate and recognize the Volleyball Chippewa Champions – the people who help make success possible. Information regarding time and place will be placed on this page, or you may contact the Chippewa Athletic Fund liaison listed below.

Champions Saturdays- Due to the success of the Chippewa Champions program, this year's "Champions Saturdays" will be held in McGuirk Arena's Upper Club Lounge. Volleyball Champions will have access to this exclusive area before and during all Saturday matches (9/15, 9/22, 10/13, 11/3, 11/10). Complimentary snacks and beverages will be provided.


Our former Chippewa student-athletes are among the greatest resources for current athletes. You are a link to our tradition of greatness and your achievements beyond Mount Pleasant extend our reach by bringing notoriety and prestige to our programs. CMU Athletics has success today, in large part, because of our special alumni.

Chippewa Champions presents a unique opportunity for our programs and letterwinners to re-connect. It allows our former letterwinners to remain a part of the inner circle of CMU Athletics and to contribute financially to the success of current and future student-athletes. In becoming a Chippewa Champion, our former athletes ensure that their positive impact on the program didn't end after their final competitive performance.
